The first two are correct and the last one is not since "hurt" is a verb. Injury in most cases describes a wound that puts a person in a handicapped status. Wound can mean any harm or damage dealt to a person. Hurt means pain. So a broken bone is an injury and a wound but a tiny cut can be a wound but not an injury.
